9Lives Racing - Run Silent, Run Deep
Has anyone had any recent dealings with 9LR?
I finally put together enough coins in early November 2022 to spring for a **** and was hoping to get it in before Christmas. At first the notifications of progress were encouraging (if not a bit "cutesy" - but okay). Then in early December everything went quiet. I thought, "Well, it's Christmastime so they're probably not working". Well, December is gone and we're halfway through January and there has not been a peep. I emailed, called and left messages and I just sent a message via Facebook (I feel so dirty having done that).
I'm just wondering if my order is an anomaly, or has 9LR "gone rogue"?

not at all.
they had a MASSIVE MASSIVE sale on black friday that has them covered up for well...a bit...
Ive gotten stuff in the past few weeks(****, pylons, carnards, end plates, damn dam, splitter ramps) and still waiting on my splitter and sturdy-boi's. A buddy just got his sturdy-boi splitter mounts the other day and he ordered those in late October I think(before their black friday sale).
They arent a big shop from what I know so when they have massive order volume it takes them a minute.
Mae is usually pretty good to respond to stuff. Johnny is on Facebook quite a bit so I would expect an answer from him.

Got your PM and sent it over to them. Lead-times up to 7 weeks it seems currently, easily could go over that when massive black-friday orders coupled with hard-to-get things from suppliers.
If you didn't get a response I would certainly call it abnormal to not get a reply. The responses you received on 12/5, 12/6, 12/15 are over the build process and are accurate. Somebody will likely double-check your order tomorrow since I sent them a message today.
Edit: Ah, a round of Covid made its way through the shop.

I should have updated the thread. I got in contact with them and it's all straightened out. They were struggling with personnel issues and a flood of orders and were playing catch up.
All is good. I got my wing and the world is set.
